Bitterness or Hope: A Parable
Life can bring us pain, even from those who love us – those we love.
You will hurt others, too – maybe not on purpose, but you will. When that happens you will hope for grace – for forgiveness.
Looking for Blessing, not Luck
As usual, Jesus likes to broaden our perspective so that we can develop a greater awareness of God in our everyday lives. In his famous Sermon on the Mount, he points out that there is a rich source of blessing to be found if we will simply look at things from God’s perspective…
I am Woman but I Don’t Roar
I am asking God to search my heart and bring to the surface those spiritual longings and aspirations that are pleasing to Him – the ones that He wants to bless and develop. The ones that will reflect his light and glory into this sometimes dark and confusing world.
Waiting and Hoping
There are simply times when God must loose us from the relationships and activities from which we have derived our identity and sense of well-being. This is for our benefit, so that we can more deeply depend on the sureness of God’s character and love. He is faithful to us and has promised to never leave us or forsake us. He has promised to be with us in every circumstance of life.
Finish His Work
Finish His Work I almost didn’t start well. A couple of months ago, I became interested in the idea of doing a blog in which I would write about God’s love and truth – which I set out to do with my usual high levels of excitement, drive and focus....Welcome! My name is Diane
I am a child of God and one who seeks to be transformed by the truth of Jesus and in the power of the Holy Spirit. I believe in a life lived lovingly, creatively and thoughtfully, always with an eye toward what is eternally important.
